Notes

Casting this on for April’s Intarsia KAL for the Year of Techniques. While Bristol has designed a shawl specifically for the project, I’m using the opportunity to cast this on instead - still intarsia, still Bristol brilliance and it’ll even have 5 colours. I am taking my inspiration from Mondrian and will fill in some of the squares with primary colours.

I can’t take credit for this idea - when The Book of Haps first came out, someone (sorry, have forgotten who) suggested something along these lines in a forum and the idea stayed with me. Should be fun.

Only mod apart from adding the extra colours was to bind off with an icord - handy for hiding all those ends.
Now that it’s done, I am in two minds about it. I love how it looks, but not sure it’s really me in terms of wearing it. Maybe I’ll frame it and hang it on a wall instead.
